BREAKING: 3I/ATLAS Exhibits Gyroscopic Jet Stabilization in Latest Finding

The mystery of 3I/ATLAS deepens with a new discovery that has left scientists grappling for explanations.

For months, 3I/ATLAS has exhibited strange behaviors that defy natural laws, but its latest anomaly—the 12th anomaly—has taken things to a whole new level.

In a groundbreaking revelation, astronomers observing the interstellar object have detected an incredibly stable, gyroscopic jet stabilization that challenges everything we thought we knew about cometary physics.

The findings suggest that 3I/ATLAS might not be a natural object at all.

Rather, its jets, which remain fixed in orientation despite the object’s rotation, could be indicative of an active propulsion system or other controlled mechanisms.

This discovery is causing waves in the scientific community, with some questioning whether 3I/ATLAS is a piece of alien technology or an object exhibiting behavior far beyond any known natural process.

The 12th Anomaly: A Glimpse of Something Extraordinary

The 12th anomaly in 3I/ATLAS‘s behavior has stunned astronomers.

The object’s jets, which should be smeared or spiraled due to its rotation, instead maintain perfect alignment as if they are locked into a single direction in space.

Typically, when a comet rotates, the jets of gas and dust it emits would be spread across a wide cone, depending on the angle of sunlight and the object’s spin.

But 3I/ATLAS doesn’t follow these rules.

Its jets extend for over a million kilometers, maintaining sharp, steady lines that don’t change as the object rotates.

This behavior suggests that the jets aren’t just a natural result of solar heating or sublimation of ice.

Instead, they appear to be engineered, with some form of internal stabilization keeping them fixed.

This could imply that 3I/ATLAS is not merely a comet but an object with an active propulsion system, possibly designed to maintain its orientation in space—something no natural comet has ever done.

A Unique Phenomenon: The Implications of Non-Gravitational Acceleration

3I/ATLAS‘s non-gravitational acceleration is the first indication that this object is not just another comet passing through our solar system.

The object’s path has deviated from what should be expected based on gravitational forces alone.

According to NASA data, 3I/ATLAS experienced two major acceleration bursts: 135 km per day squared radially away from the sun, and 60 km per day squared transversely to its orbit.

These sudden accelerations suggest that some external force, beyond what gravitational attraction can explain, is acting on the object.

Avi Loeb, the renowned astrophysicist who has led much of the discussion around interstellar objects, suggests that these changes could be the result of artificial propulsion.

The acceleration, combined with the object’s high reflectivity and unusual color shift, leads Loeb to speculate that 3I/ATLAS may not be a natural object at all but could be a deliberate probe or spacecraft sent from another star system.

The Unusual Color Shift: Blue Light, Not Red

One of the most surprising features of 3I/ATLAS is its color.

Unlike most comets, which tend to appear red or yellow due to sunlight scattering off ice and dust, 3I/ATLAS has been observed to shift toward a blue hue as it approaches the sun.

Blue light typically indicates higher energy emissions, which is inconsistent with the expected behavior of a comet whose surface should be colder than the sun.

This unexpected color change has left scientists scratching their heads.

Could it indicate a high-energy internal mechanism, or even an artificial heat source within the object? The blue hue could be a sign of a powerful engine or radiation emitted from within the object, further suggesting that 3I/ATLAS is not a typical interstellar body, but something designed to produce its own energy.

China’s Silence and NASA’s Unreleased Images

The timing of this discovery is even more curious when you consider the lack of transparency from space agencies, particularly NASA and China.

Despite capturing high-resolution images of 3I/ATLAS, both agencies have been hesitant to release the data to the public.

On October 2nd, 2025, NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter captured some of the sharpest images of the object, but they have not been released.

In an effort to understand why, Avi Loeb reached out to the principal investigator of the mission, but received no response.

China, too, has remained silent, despite its Tianwen-1 Mars orbiter being positioned to capture critical data during the flyby.

After months of regular updates and stunning imagery from its space missions, China’s space agency did not release any images of 3I/ATLAS, choosing instead to hold back its findings.

This is a break from the usual pattern of public space data release, leading many to speculate that the data is being withheld for reasons other than routine analysis.

A New Era of Exploration: What Are We Really Looking At?

With all the new data surrounding 3I/ATLAS, one thing is clear: we are witnessing an object unlike anything previously observed.

From its gyroscopic jet stabilization, to its blue hue, to its non-gravitational acceleration, every piece of evidence points to the possibility that 3I/ATLAS is not a natural object, but something engineered—possibly by an alien civilization.

Loeb’s theory that 3I/ATLAS could be an ancient probe, built to observe or explore, is gaining traction.

If the object is artificial, it could represent the first concrete evidence of an extraterrestrial intelligence—or at least a technological artifact from another star system.

The precision of its motion and the anomalies in its physical characteristics suggest that it was not just randomly flung across space, but rather it may have been deliberately directed toward our solar system.

Conclusion: The Uncertainty Lingers

As 3I/ATLAS continues to move farther away from the sun, the mystery only deepens.

The scientific community is left with more questions than answers.

Was this interstellar object merely a natural comet, or is it something far more extraordinary—something designed, something intelligent?

The absence of transparency and the reluctance to release images by major space agencies only intensifies the speculation.

As the data continues to trickle in, scientists are left to wonder whether 3I/ATLAS is the beginning of humanity’s first contact with extraterrestrial intelligence, or if it’s a phenomenon that will forever challenge our understanding of the universe.
